Remarks & Notes

MILW 195 leads train 202 around the curve as it approaches the west end of the Columbia River bridge and Beverly, WA. The next crew change is Othello, is 38 miles further east. Othello was the west end of the "gap" between Milwaukee's two electrified districts. The track at the left heads to the Hanford nuclear reservation. These tracks came together right at the bridge. This train is completing its descent of Milwaukee's steepest mainline grade.
